Nice little restaurant, the food is gorgeous! We weren't aware that Saturday was geared towards children (kids films etc) so there were lots of kids running around, but overall it was great.

I thought this place was amazing! We went during the afternoon, so it was only the two of us on the upper deck of the bus :). The staff were friendly and the food was really good. Would definitely recommend and can't wait to make a return trip!

The inconsistency in service wasn't nice. We went with a big group and I know this can be tricky at the best of time, however our main waitress clearly seems to be getting fed up of serving us! Which wasn't very nice. Lots of mix up with food order. Service was slow! They promised to take two meals which where extremely late off our bill but they didn't! Didn't bother ask them! The online booking process was easy, I wish I did that in the first place as email communication was very poor!

good food and nice to dine on a big red bus. A very interesting venue with lots going on live entertainment and cinema nights offered. We went for lunch it was very quiet, service was a bit slow but very pleasant. I would imagine the atmosphere at night to be quite lively and the whole place has a good 'feel ' to it. Will definitely go again probably try for evening this time. Wonderful dessert, the melting chocolate sponge, highly recommend. For main try the gnocci with lamb ragu mmmmm delicious!

Great atmosphere (eating on a bus!!) and lovely pizza, but end-of-meal service (getting bill etc) is always very slow. Not a major problem of course!

Got a seat inside the bus..yeah!! Food and service excellent but a bit chilly -eating with coats on made it a 5 instead of 6. But I'll layer up next time!

Food average. Comedy night after woods was excellent. Service was the worst thing I've ever received in my life. No orders were taken at the table. Food / drinks took a long time to arrive after ordering at the bar. Bill came back wrong, had to be changed. Manager couldn't be bothered to change it properly so he just discounted it by 10%. Still expected a 10% service charge. Two tables inside the bus also complained about service. Very dissapointing.

Could not fault the food but need to have a greater choice of beer - maybe a real ale? Will definitely be back though and hopefully get a table in the bus next time! :)

Great tasting pizzas but not the most engaging atmosphere. Also a 10% service charge is added to your bill which is fine although the service was not out of this world.

This was about my 5/6th visit to The Big Red. The pizza was amazing as always and they service some of my favorite beer 'Meantime' which is brewed just up the road in Greenwich. However the service was very slow, after the order was taken it took about 20 mins for us to recieve our drinks. Two of the waiting staff were unaware of the pizza, pint and free comedy offer for £10.00 and I had to inist that the offer had been posted on their Twitter page that evening. Upon checking with a manager they did eventually honor the special offer. My friends and I all really enjoyed the comedy and would definatly try to catch another show this year. I really like this restaurant and I love going somewhere local and independent for dinner. It's just a shame the service can be so hit and miss.
